Another life-changing moment
Obviously the 1st time was that supernatural intervention I had from God when I was at that party Bit of Background. Another life changing moment for me happened probably about a year and a half ago. I listened to a CD from Joseph Prince who talked about God’s love. Before this ‘life changing event’ when I heard anything to do with this subject, I thought, ‘Well God loves everyone, everyone knows that’, but I actually did strive to love God and people more. I’d go over the ‘love’ scriptures and memorise them, because I knew that deep down love is the major key for living in God’s kingdom. I just didn’t know how I could do it and I knew it wasn’t meant to be in my own strength. God says that His yoke is easy, well it never used to be EASY for me! Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think I’ve ever been a mean person, I just kept wondering HOW could I really have that love for God and others more? God talks about having perfect love; What does that really mean??? How the heck can any person have perfect love in this world??? Well, on the CD’s Joseph Prince talked about receiving God’s love personally. He kept saying that he BELIEVES that HE is God’s beloved and favoured son (just like Jesus) and that he feeds and receives on His love for him, which automatically makes Joseph fall in love with God more. The perfect love that God is talking about, is God’s perfect love FOR US. Receiving and BELIEVING that God really does love each one of us personally, just like Jesus (as He is in the world, so are we). Anyway, I thought I’d give it a go. I didn’t really know what to do at first, so I just sat still for a bit then started saying and thinking that ‘I am God’s beloved daughter’. I then started hearing God’s still small voice saying, ‘I love you Nik, you are so precious to me, you are my beloved daughter. Just receive My love. This is the key for you. Don’t worry’ and straight away I felt this amazing love all through me, the same feeling I felt at that party. All my worries and fears just disappeared immediately and I just started getting this deep love for God and for others that I have never had before! I just kept asking God, ‘HOW can you seriously love me that much, I’ve got so much crap in my life?’ I then just felt even more love from Him and just broke down. God looks straight past our ‘crap’. He loves each one of us regardless and the first thing I believe He wants for each one of us, is to BELIEVE how much He loves us with real, pure, everlasting love, how precious we are to Him. He wants every one of us to hear Him say ‘YOU ARE my beloved son / daughter’. This moment really did totally change my relationship with God and my life. I just need to keep sitting still and listen now!
